Feeling completely alone

My partner is a minimal helper. Do what I can...kind of type. I am lately feeling even more defeated that not only am I parenting mostly on my own but completely feeling on my own. By no means has our relationship ever been perfect. I'm now more so on the fence of how do I end it and keep living my life. We are in a sense stuck together so even we decide not to be "in a relationship" anymore, we would still have to live together and I'm wondering what that would even look like ...
or do we just stay together and see if we can still work it out ...
feel like it's far past that point. I know I want more kids one day but at this point in time with this person... I don't see much of a future...

So you want to split ?
Do you both work ? Do you own/rent ?
Do you have any child benefit paid into your own account ?

I am not sure I want to split...
Maybe like 80% of me does and there is small chance that it could be worked out but there has to be A LOT of change which seems like it would be too difficult for both of us to do at the moment. I'm about to go back to work (off from maternity). My partner does work but only really pays the mortgage and nothing for me or our child. (This has also been a big problem...but he doesn't see it as a problem )
We own.
We have child benefit.

If there’s any chance of you splitting you need to get the CB paid into your own account.
